I'm trying to get the tftp server running.
I have confirmed that the firewall allows tcp and udp packets through port 69.
HERE is my tftp entry service tftp { socket_type = dgram protocol = udp wait = yes user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd server_args = -s /tftpboot/ disable = no }
I don't see ANY activity on this. xinet is running
if I do: telnet 1.2.3.4 69 I get "connection refused" yet I can't find anything in the /var/log/messages or /var/log/xinetd.log to indicate a problem.
telnet uses tcp, while tftpd is a udp ftp server normally used to transfer boot images for netboot configurations. That's why it doesn't react to telnet You could try something like "netcat -u 1.2.3.4 69" to see if you get signs of life
